My favorite 3rd-party firmware is Tomato. I bought the Asus mostly based
on postive experiences from others on the tomatousb.org forum. The
RT-N16 has enough cpu, memory and flash to be able to do a lot of
interesting things (openvpn endpoint, upnp server, torrent client, etc)
One negative is that it does not have dual-band wireless (2.4/5 GHz),
but that feature seems to push devices that can use open firmware over
the $100 price point.
